About us
Our vision is to empower professionals with learning experiences that build empathy and business savvy, encourage lifelong learning, and deliver impact to their business and the world.
Wyda is not like any learning platform you’ve experienced before. It is a virtual game-based platform designed to help professionals build business acumen. By stepping into the roles of key executives, professionals gain empathy and business savvy through immersive, virtual role play. Wyda combines autonomous virtual learning with social connections and discussion, through optional coaching, workshops, discussion forums, to deliver a truly comprehensive learning experience like no other.

Mission
Wyda exists to help professional people gain the skills to be business savvy, to better connect and to deliver impact. We believe:

Education changes lives for the better. Lifelong learning for every person who wants to learn and grow matters.

Business is an instrument that has enormous impact on the world, we can shape that to be a positive force through our learning.

Meaningful human connection is critical to success. Connection and empathy with customers, clients, partners, and across silos.

What we’ve observed
For years we observed the following issues constraining businesses around the world:

Silos
Executives who had risen within a silo and found themselves leading organisations without a solid appreciation of what goes on in functions other than where they came from.

Limited Alignment
Senior leaders with limited impact, unable to align or mobilise cross functional efforts.

Lack of Customer Understanding
Customer facing professionals who don’t understand their customer’s business well enough to become the relevant trusted advisors they sought to be.

Lack of Partner/Supplier Understanding
Buyers/Procurement Managers who negotiate without understanding what really matters for the other party and what cards they both had to play.

Internal Assumptions and Bias
Professionals who don’t understand their own organisation beyond their own department or the impacts of their decisions on other stakeholders, misguided by assumptions and bias.
Wyda was born to reimagine business acumen – to develop savvy professionals; street smart having walked in the shoes of multiple functions. Having strong empathy because they have felt the pressure themselves. Drawing on Dan Pink’s principles of intrinsic motivation – Autonomy, Mastery and Purpose we built an immersive game.
It’s fun, it’s fast, it’s complex and helps you connect strategy, operations, people, finance, leadership and the external elements.
Wyda is a learning product from Savvy Games, founded in 2018 with a mission to bring new concepts and experiences to corporate learning.
